Job architecture is the framework for understanding roles and their hierarchy within a company. In Lattice, job architecture is a combination of fields that determine an employee’s job track and level in Grow and comp band in our Compensation tool.
Job architecture is available as three default fields in Lattice:
- Job function
- Job type
- Job level

Before you start
- An admin must first integrate their HRIS with Lattice before they sync with a Lattice field.
- You can only sync job architecture to fields that already exist within your HRIS. Ensure the field has already been created in your HRIS before attempting to sync a job architecture default field with your HRIS.
- Your account does not need to have Grow or Compensation to be able to sync your HRIS with job architecture.
- Job architecture fields must have the same name in Lattice and the HRIS to successfully sync over.
Sync job architecture with an HRIS
- Navigate to Admin > Settings > People > Fields.
- Expand the Job architecture field section.
- Click on the ellipsis (...) next to the desired job architecture field (i.e. job function, job type, or job level) and select Link to [HRIS].
- A field modal will appear –– Under HRIS field, choose an field currently available within your HRIS that will be imported and linked to the desired job architecture default field.
- Select Link field.
- Complete the same workflow for the other job architecture fields.
Employee profile
Once job architecture fields have been synced to your HRIS, employee profiles will be updated with their tied job function, job type, and job level.
Note: Edits to job architecture can only be made within your HRIS which will then sync over to Lattice since the HRIS is considered the source of truth.
